Came for a visit as my girls had discovered it, cats lovely, staff very nice, was quite pricey for what we had, I chose avocado bruschetta but it wasn’t bruschetta it was normal white toast, no serviettes and cutlery out of draw cat had sat on. Overall a nice experience but won’t be repeating
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterWe had an excellent cup of coffee and Bacon Bap. The 4 cats were so friendly especially when I was given the treat tin. Nice chatting to the owner. Lovely atmosphere and would definitely go back to see how they are all growing up.
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterOne of the best experiences in both me and my partner have ever had, absolutely exemplary in both food and the cats themselves. If you even remotely like cats and are out for lunch absolutely book a table, the four cats they have there are some of the sweetest and cutest i have ever seen. I will absolutely be revisiting now and then to see how the kittens grow, especially sushi.
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterI have to say the food was lovely but the atmosphere and service for me was poor, this was a Friday and it wasn’t that busy we was waiting for ages for our drinks after we ordered I had to ask 4 times where were our drinks, everyone else got theirs before us even though we ordered before them, service needs to be better for me, so I won’t be recommending I’m afraid
Ming Wah Restaurant – WeymouthA lovely little cat cafe with friendly, attentive staff. I took my 8 year old daughter and her younger cousins, one of which is 3 who enjoyed the food and amenities on offer which included drawing and games. My daughter in particular loved playing with the friendly cats, one of which was a very friendly kitten. All of the cats were little darlings, friendly and sociable. I would recommend a visit to all.
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterThis was my 4th visit over a period of a few years. Service excellent, food superb you can't go wrong. Booking recommended.
Ming Wah Restaurant – WeymouthLovely time with my nephew visiting Tabby Terrace. The 4 resident cats are super cute. My nephew enjoyed his sausage bap and a cup cake and I my cup of tea. Would definitely return hopefully going to bring my cat mad friend very soon.
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterBook a table for 4 lovely atmosphere and service was very efficient and staff very pleasant Couldn’t fault the food we chose several dishes to share, we wasn’t rushed it was perfect and reasonably priced
Ming Wah Restaurant – WeymouthEvery time we visit Weymouth, we dine at this restaurant, although recently, it has changed ownership. We decided to book again on our last visit (May 2025) and wow. Food was superb and service, excellent. Highly recommend.

The Gallery Restaurant at the Hotel Rembrandt – WeymouthLovely little cat cafe, smaller than we expected but still lots of interactions with the lovely cats. Staff were friendly and helpful, food was tasty and very reasonable in price. All four of the cats were delightful, clearly well looked after and happy to be there. Will visit again soon.
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterBrilliant place to go with the cats being super friendly and fun. Child friendly place and the staff were nice people. Highly recommended going and the tea and cake was also lovely :)
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterVisited on a busy Saturday evening. Thought food delicious but felt restaurant was short staffed. One young man appeared to be doing everything. Some groups waited to be greeted and seated, were given menus and were without drinks for a considerable time. Uncertain whether kitchen overwhelmed coping with a full dining room, take out and delivery orders. The phone did not stop ringing and often went unanswered - there is only so much two staff members can do! Consequently people were hanging around waiting their take aways and drivers were waiting too. This had a knock on effect to us. For example the starters arrived before our drinks. The next course our warm plates arrived but were cold before the duck arrived, then we waited whilst tables around us were cleared before the pancakes etc were brought. Appreciate these are minor snags but they leave an impression. The decor has been updated with new tables and chairs. Unfortunately the toilets have yet to receive the same treatment. We said we would definitely go back as the food was tasty but perhaps try to get an earlier table (we had 8pm) and see if things are a little calmer
Ming Wah Restaurant – WeymouthMy wife and I visited it today and met all our expectations. We met 4 resident cats and played with them for a while whilst drinking our Catte. The owners were very nice and friendly
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterAlways a fantastic experience, very friendly staff and wonderful environment with happy kitties
Tabby Terrace – DorchesterI took my grandson for a meal for the 2nd time. Food was amazing and staff were very friendly.
Ming Wah Restaurant – WeymouthGroup of 7 of us enjoyed an excellent meal on Saturday. The menu was extensive and the quality of food did not disappoint. We had brilliant service from our waitress and the front of house staff were friendly. At the time there was a large group in the restaurant and the service was not impacted by this. I cannot reccomend this restaurant highly enough & definitely look forward to returning.
